### My story

Hey, I’m Rashi. Clay’s been my thing since 2004 – it’s like a never-ending adventure. Learned loads from my mentors, Ray, Deborath, Hanumantapa, and my spiritual guru Satpurananda – gratitude always, especially on GuruPurnima. My family’s got their hands in clay too, and that makes me smile. Teaching at IDC, IIT Mumbai and V.E.S. has been wild. For me, it’s all about making, teaching, and growing with my clay community. Sab kuch connected hai (everything’s connected).

### My work

- **Clay Courses & Workshops**: From basics to advanced clay workshops, we guide you wherever you are in your clay journey.
- **Studio Memberships**: Studio memberships for potters – practise, create, break, and laugh with fellow clay folk.
- **Community & Events**: We host Japanese tea ceremony with clay, handpan music sessions, and other art events for everyone.
- **Handmade Ceramics**: I make functional handmade ceramics in wood, gas, and electric kilns. Come see what’s cooking!
